I really wanted to like this book because the storyline was very intriguing but the hero, Killoran, was an ass until end of the book. I love tortured heroes but he was just too much without feeling and was too cold-hearted. The reason behind for him being this way was not that traumatic, I read heroes with much worse fate and they were still acted better than Killoran. I also didnt really like the heroin, Emma, because she took him back no matter how he constantly used and humiliated her. Emma kept on saying he has a good heart underneath but not even once does he do something that showed that, in fact because of him she end up getting hurt more and he doesnt seem sorry for any of it. In addition, I hated the fact how easily Emma forgave him for everything..at this point I wanted throw way the book because I was SO frustrated. By time the epilogue came, I actually didnt want this jerk of hero to have happy ending and I really had hard time believing he actually changed and wasnt that jackass anymore.

The secondary characters and storyline was great. In my opinion Nathaniel was SO much better man than the Killoran.
